I have found that the "Maximum Volume Jobs" of each tape volume can be
changed in bconsole update. I have changed the "Maximum Volume
Jobs" parameters to "0" for my tapes and start a backup. But now, all the
tapes failed with the error:
Error: Unable to position to end of data on device "tapedrive-1"...
Marking Volume "000017L9" in Error in Catalog
These tapes were OK, backup jobs were written to these tapes, and the
backups ended with no errors.
What is the problem now?
Here is the full log of the last backup before I cancelled it:
